Back then a good resort cabin was one where the screens weren't ripped and the screen door closed to keep the misquotes at bay. Boy things have changed. Scott and Beth's Otter Tail Beach Resort is nothing at all like those resorts of my childhood. I stayed in one of the smaller cabins and it was modern, clean, and very functional. There was a nice complete kitchen area, a TV, and a nice shower right in the cabin. The woodwork and detail was awesome. In some ways the cabin was nicer then my house. When I'm in the area again, I will definitely stay here.

We look forward to our visits with owners Barb and Steve Jensen and seeing what improvements and enhancements have been made since our last visit - this year we were impressed with the remodeling of the lakeside cottages. Cottage 4, Grandma's Attic, remains our favorite and now has a wonderful view of the lake with the addition of the full side of windows. Also this year we had a special need to adjust our rental time due to illness: Barb assured us we could stay the extra days and found space even though it was the beginning of June.

My family has gone here over the years and when it came time for my sisters bachelorette party this was on the list to check off. After doing some digging I discovered that they had the options to fit a party of our size and the cost didn't break the bank. We stayed in Cabin 14 and I can speak that the cabin has been completely redone (not because of us). I had the opportunity to see some of the recently remodeled cabins and they are excellent! The owners of the property are fantastic! They are so warm and welcoming! Only downside is there isn't really a beach, the shoreline is rocks so there wasn't really a space to get into the water.

They truly go above and beyond to make your stay memorable. The resort offers many activities and equipment: Pontoon boats, fishing boats, speed boats (if you want to try water-skiing, wake-boarding, etc.), kayaks, paddle boards, etc. It was a great week and we look forward to going back in the future!

As of 2015, the new owners are great. They have made many changes and improvements such as replacing the water system for the cabins and implementing resort-wide Wi-Fi. I hope the good changes continue to come. Fishing is generally good, especially for crappy, bluegill, and bass. They have boats available for rental as well. As for the resort, there are a number of water toys available such as canoes, paddle boats, etc. The swimming area has a raft that is an absolute blast to play "Tilt the Raft" or "King of the Raft." They also have a water trampoline. The costs can be pricey, with the regular cabins running around $1300/week, but overall it is definitely worth it. Weslake Resort simply has more benefits than other resorts can compete with. Would recommend!
